"Are you okay?" Amy asks me, worried about my health as any normal person usually would.
"Yeah, i'll be fine." I assure her, when really I'd never felt so much pain in my entire life. My ribs hurt, and were digging into an organ. I wanted to scream out so badly in pain but I couldn't feel the strength to do so. It was as if all my energy had just disappeared into thin air.
"I'm- I'm going to get you some water." Amy rushes, hurrying back into her house and pushing by the crowd that was in her way. She struggles at first, but it was as if her small body could easily squeeze through large crowds due to her petite size.
Em was supporting my weight so I could actually stand, without her I'd probably be on the cold grass, wet and embarrassed. I was already getting looks after sitting on the road, it had marked my white dress.
Em speaks quietly to me, almost whispering.
"Listen Cece, breathe okay. Just breathe, and don't loose control." She assures me, cuddling in to make me feel better until I began questioning what on cheese and ice-cream she was talking about.
"What do you mean?" I manage to sniffle out, the pain killing every bit of life inside of me as I began moaning out in pain.
"I should've have arranged this, I thought it would be a perfect diversion but I thought it was happening tomorrow." She mutters to herself.
"Cece, just breathe. Usually that helps when it comes to pain." She rolls her eyes at herself for taking to long to answer my question.
"Yeah, when someone's in labour! And I'm not in labour nor am I pregnant!." I snap, having no idea where on planet earth that it came from. I resist swinging at Em, but deep down my body wants to lunge at anything with a pulse.
Multiple girls that were also outside begin snickering and I could hear their failed attempts at whispering.
"Omigosh...Cecelia's pregnant with Ashton Grays child."
"Do you think she will get an abortion!"
"It wouldn't surprise me if she cheated on him with the new creep at the school...it's probably his."
"He is hot though, I'd cheat aswell."
Amy then comes back with a large cup of water which was placed in a red plastic cup, obviously meant for alcohol. She probably had no idea.
I chug it instantly, while someone from behind shouts something stupid like,
"Yeah! You go girl!" Thinking it was some form of alcohol.
The voice that came was male, and it really wouldn't have surprised me if they were also drunk. There was a numbered amount at this party who weren't so far, and very quickly it was decreasing.
I could hear another voice speak now, a male voice which I recognised but couldn't tell who it was. "Happy birthday..." The soft voice says, handing over a present which was pretty big compared to all the others, if not the biggest.
I don't know what it was, or who it was...but they smelt absolutely amazing. In more ways than one. I was so disoriented that I was worried I would pass out as I slipped from Ems arm.
"Are-are you okay?" The voice asks from in front of me, but my eyesight was too blurry that I couldn't tell who it was. Yet the closer they got, the more I felt the connection. I knew who it was, no one felt this way around me except one boy.
Who liked wearing a black hoodie, and annoying me. Hunter. It had to be.
"I'll take that from you," I heard Amy squeal, a large blush forming across her face.
"I can put it in the living room." She smiles at him, my vision was clearing up slightly and I noticed that for the first time that I had ever seen him, he wasn't wearing a black hoodie.
Instead, he was wearing a white top with sleeves which perfectly showed his abs, and blue denim jeans which showed off his legs perfectly. And they were long, but muscular.
"W-what are you-u doing here." I input, feeling like I was going to be sick after remembering how rude he was a few days ago to me. It hurt my feelings to even think about it which was strange, I hadn't felt like this about it before...
He sighs and speaks softly, his voice giving me chills. " I wanted to apologise for Monday at lunch, I was being very rude." He says, his strange hybrid accent showing through and giving me goosebumps.
I had to physically fight myself from looking up into his pretty eyes. I lost...obviously.
Appearing out of nowhere, my drunk boyfriend waltzes up to us, pissed and angry at me. Obviously he'd had even more to drink which currently made him number 2 on the most pissed people list for my party.
Number one was the girl passed out on Amy's lawn. Snoring away happily.
"W-what are you doing with HIM!" Ashton shouts, catching the attention of everyone standing nearby. Including the snotty girls from earlier which were gossiping about me.
"Yup...she cheated, and now she gonna get her ass dumped."
"He came to apologise!" I explain, pissed at him for immediately getting angry and also because of the pain that I was going through. Which by the second was getting worse and worse as I began to struggle to stand.
"You-you....whore!" He shouts at me, causing sniffles from the nearby teens watching. It hurt, I had to admit it put a hole in my heart. I didn't deserve this, not at my birthday party in front of the entire school.
"He did this to me!" He screams, pointing at his black eye which had appeared after the incident of Monday. He did ask for it.
"I haven't done anything!" I plead at him, feeling my legs start to shake and the muscles inside start to fall apart beneath me. My world had began to plummet.
"Crap!" He shouts at me, " we're over!"
And just with that he storms off and drastically trips walking back into the house as result of his drunkenness. He falls onto the floor, passing out completely. He'd reached number one on my list.
"He's just drunk Ce, don't think much of it." Em says to me, tears appearing in my eyes.
But the tears weren't for him, they were for me.
Amy tries to walk me through the house and her plan was to take me upstairs to her bedroom as Em spoke to Hunter outside - but as I reach the living room, my leg cracks dramatically, causing me to scream as loudly as I possibly could.
Everyone falls silent, all that was heard was the music coming from the speakers. The bass hitting the roof and the ground while no one danced, all were silent, and staring at me.
My other leg then cracks, turning sideways and breaking almost completely which forces me to fall straight to the floor. I watch as Em runs in and falls to her knees beside me, begging me not to loose it over and over again. Saying it was her fault.
Another figure then comes running over, and effortlessly scooped me into their arms before taking me out the front door. Em was running behind. It was the same sweet smell as before, like honey and fresh strawberries.
I try to focus on the face that was in front of me, and slowly saw it bit by bit.
First the light blue eyes, which could put even the sky to shame. They were mesmerising as the different shades of blue blended with each other.
Then it was the beautifully sculpted jaw, which could cut off a limb.
Then finally the long-on-top, jet black hair which fell around the ears messily. Some of it tucked behind. It sorta reminded me of a young, hot Leonardo Decaprio.
"H-hunter?" I ask, confused as to why I was in his arms in the first place. Where on Earth were we going anyways?
He was running in the direction of the woods, a place that I was terrified of for all the right reasons. Each step we got closer to more I began to fight in his arms.
I was terrified as one, the wolves, two...the wolves, and three, well...more flesh-eating wolves.
I look behind me to find Em running to catch up with him, and Amy whom was at the house Screaming on me but not getting an answer back. Hunter then shouts to Em to get my mom and I silently cry in his arms.
I look upwards at the dark sky and the moon which felt like it was calling to me, the Stars were slowly becoming more vibrant as we got away from the streetlights and the normal world as I knew it.
I didn't take my eyes off of the full-moon, I couldn't.
I got chills as I suddenly heard a wolf calling out.
Its loud howl caused shivers around my body and I felt like I was going to die. I knew I was. Every inch of my being knew that this wasn't right.
What if he's taking me into the woods, to dump me here since my legs are broken and let the wolves eat me? My sub-conscious was scaring me, my darkest fears becoming a reality. What if he was?
I suddenly worry for my life, and I began panicking at the false reality I had created in my head...what if it were to come true? What if he was a runaway murderer and this was it.
I couldn't see Em anymore, and the panic settled in deeper causing me to start screaming and thrashing about like an idiot.
"Shh, shh, shh." Hunter hushes calmly, still running with me in his arms for some unknown reason. But somehow, his voice seemed to calm me.
"Hunter I'm going to die!" I cry at him, pain now entering my arms and neck before spreading once again around my body once again.
"It hurts!" I scream,"it hurts!"
Hunter then places me down on the damp leaves on the ground where my arms now began to twist in unnatural ways. Sockets were popping out of place and my hands dig into the brown soil.
The screams I made didn't sound human.
"My dress! I'm going to ruin my dress!" I scream out, not paying any attention to the real problem before me as usual. I used it as a distraction, if I could focus on something there wouldn't be so much pain.
"Help me! I scream at him,"it hurts" I cry, closing my eyes to deal with the pain. It only gets worse.
I look up at hunter, whom seemed as though he was as hurt as me. His beautiful eyes refusing to make contact with mine as his shoulder rose up and down gently.
"I can't help you, it's all down to you," he says with wide eyes, "I'm sorry."
I let out one final scream, and felt myself entering into the black void of nothingness.
Dun dun dun, I feel bad now aha.
What do you thinks gonna happen?
